This was posted on the MΓ–RK BORG subreddit and it made me very happy. About how MB, some metal tapes and monopoly dice helped a guy get clean. Another commenter mentioned running JAIL BORG from memory. Things like this make me all warm inside.

They’re going to accidentally meme the turkish streamer into an actual political opposition figure and it’s going to be entirely because these people are weirdo racists who hate the youth lol

We know Charlie Kirk would want us to pray for such an evil, and lost individual like Tyler Robinson to find Jesus Christ.

We will try to do the same.

Tough choice for Starmer to sack Mandelson, but we can all agree it was masterful of him to only do this after 48 solid hours saying he would not sack him because he really really likes and trusts the guy who supported the most famous paedophile the world has ever known.

Banksy could be unmasked as police probe 'criminal damage' over Royal Courts of Justice artwork | LBC Police have launched an investigation into a new Banksy artwork depicting a judge attacking a protestor with a gavel.

Banksy is a pillar of British culture.

He’s been daubing walls for three decades.

As soon as he satirises peaceful protesters being dragged through the courts for holding placards opposing Israel’s genocide, he faces being unmasked and prosecuted.

It's weird how humans can spend so much time imagining the future but, when it arrives, it's always a left hook you didn't see coming

British economic sentiment is following the US in becoming an increasingly partisan signal.

There has been a red-blue sentiment gap for decades, but it’s widening (data: @ipsosintheuk.bsky.social / @keiranpedley.bsky.social)

The Baby Died. Whose Fault Is It? When her son died in utero, a venture capitalist went to extremes to punish her surrogate.

Surrogate pregnancies are increasingly popular in tech circles, and the practice is expected to explode globally in the coming decade. It’s also shockingly unregulated. This is a story about what happens when it goes horribly wrong.

A reminder: Asylum seekers are in hotels because of a huge application backlog that the gov't must work through. Robert Jenrick - now, bursting with creative solutions - processed applications slowly ***on purpose*** as a deterrent.

Here he is, as Immigration Minister two years ago, saying so. ~AA

The Cameron-Osborne years offer an important reminder that it is possible to excel at the theatre of politics - to "look prime ministerial", to dominate the "media narrative", to project "competence" and to communicate a clear political "story" - while being strikingly inept at governing.

News channels somehow managing to cover a War Summit as if it were a Royal Wedding - both breathless and adding no insight.
